This thread is to promote actual stores and people who sell services for ALTcoins.

*Some sites may charge a premium for the risk they incur in trading for alternative currency Caveat emptor

The Rules to stay listed:- Store has to sell something whether it be a good or service (such as hosting). - Store must accept at least one Alternative cryptocurrency cannot just be BTC- And any scam accusation will get a tag if confirmed move to a list of known scam sites. - Any store can be removed by the owner, for obvious inacticty or if its no longer available.- I will continually prune the thread as stores are added and to keep it clean and usable.- Help me help you by PMing me any change to your store that needs to be noted.

OK, so you consider a store charging 6x value for items not a scam? Taking advantage of naive people that might not realize the worth of what they have?

You can't expect everyone to do their due diligence, that's why we still get emails from Nigerian princes

Dacentec, best deals for US dedicated servers. They regularly restock $20-$25 Opterons with 8-16GB RAM & 2x1-2TB HDD's (ofc, usually lots of other good stuff to choose from). I did a Serverbear benchmark of one of my $20/mo Opteron (June last year), it's here. Have had about a half dozen different servers with Dacentec, & none have failed to sustain at least 40MB/s (burst higher). My favorite is a 12-month rent-to-own ZT Systems 2XL5520 16GB 2x2TB SATA for $40/month (got lucky with the 'off-brand', haven't seen a RTO 2xL5520 for under $50/mo since -- at least for monthly contracts). wholesaleinternet.com has some ancient 2-core intel CPUs @ $10/mo sometimes (I got an Intel Core 2 6300 @ 1.86GHz, with a 250GB HDD with 46000 hours on it, LOL. $20 @ Dacentec is much better, if you can grab one). joesdatacenter.com (same location as Wholesale Internet) also occasionally has specials (or if you don't want to wait, it has an AMD Opteron 170 @ $16/mo).

Not sure I agree I mean a convenience store charges a premium. Lots of stores charge a premium for many reasons. Calling an altcoin store that tries to get a profit a confidence game is a tad over the top I think. And we don't ban email to prevent Nigerian princes. People dont start a store to lose money. This world of everything needs a warning label is getting a tad out of control "Coffee is hot" "smoking is bad for you" "Acid will hurt you" "Don't stick this knife into your eye its sharp", but despite my personal Darwin approach to humanity I will put a note on it.

Just wondering. I went through the list and can't see any stores that are 6X the value. None that are even out of line. Just wondering if my test store is the one that he is calling out?

I can't say my prices are nailed down yet, I have to see how I can make things more efficient as I do a few transactions. 1 problem for altcoin stores people have to consider. Unless I am missing something, if you want to trade in something such as Bottlecaps, you have to run the coins you receive through 2 exchanges (Each taking a fee) in order to get USD back out. You also have a bit of time between both exchanges where prices can fall (Making the store take a loss for the transaction)

Second my "store" isn't exactly a store yet. If I do manage to sell an iTunes card, I will have to drive down to the mall, purchase an iTunes card, scratch it, and send the code via e-mail. If people actually start buying cards, you can see, I can easily make this process more efficient, such as buying in bulk when they go on sale, or looking into getting a better way to purchase them for a discount, in both cases I can lower the prices on my site.

If you want to take the time to run your altcoins thru the exchanges and use your USD to purchase whatever you want for less, then by all means don't use my site. I am doing this more as a way of adding value to a few of my fav alt coins than making money (trust me driving 2 kms to the store to buy a card for a $1 profit is NOT worth it).

Well I put in an order for an Itunes card for CAP's to help make it worth your while.
